Mitsubishi’s Reentry into India Raises Questions: Car Sales in the Pipeline?

Prepare for a thrilling comeback in the Indian car scene as Mitsubishi reemerges with a bang! Seizing a hefty 32 percent stake in TVS Mobility’s car dealership arm, this Japanese giant is set to redefine the game. Pending regulatory green lights, TVS Mobility is gearing up to transform its dealership segment into the dynamic entity known as TVS Vehicle Mobility Solution. Get ready for an exciting journey ahead.

Mitsubishi Join Hands with TVS Mobility

In a groundbreaking agreement, TVS Mobility, renowned for its expansive dealership network encompassing brands such as Honda Cars India, is set to embark on a new venture alongside Mitsubishi Corporation (MC). This collaboration will see the birth of a fresh organization, with Mitsubishi holding a significant 32 percent stake.

Together, these industry giants are poised to revolutionize mobility solutions across various sectors, spanning passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and material handling equipment (MHE). With the Japanese conglomerate projecting a staggering revenue potential of USD 2 billion within the next 3-5 years, the future looks exceptionally promising for this dynamic partnership.

As the world’s third-largest market for new cars, India stands as a pivotal arena for automotive innovation. The Mitsubishi-TVS collaboration is poised to capitalize on this dynamic landscape, offering not only a diverse range of cars from esteemed brands like  Ashok Leyland, Renault, Honda, and Mahindra but also an array of ancillary services including after-sales support, leasing, insurance, and more.

Furthermore, in response to the burgeoning consumer interest in electric vehicles (EVs), the dealerships will cater to both EVs and internal combustion engine (ICE) cars, ensuring a comprehensive offering that aligns with evolving consumer preferences. This partnership is set to redefine the automotive experience in India, blending cutting-edge technology with unparalleled customer service.

At present, the prospect of Mitsubishi entering the Indian car market remains uncertain. While the recent announcement primarily focuses on Mitsubishi’s investment in TVS Mobility, there’s no indication of any immediate plans to introduce Mitsubishi cars to the Indian market. As a result, it seems unlikely that we’ll witness the debut of new Mitsubishi vehicles on Indian roads anytime soon.
